Re: Action required: Update firewall configurations for new Intune network endpoints
Dear colleagues,
Starting December 2, 2025, Microsoft Intune will also use Azure Front Door IP ranges for service connectivity. These addresses are tagged as AzureFrontDoor.MicrosoftSecurity. Units that manage firewalls, proxies, or outbound traffic rules must update configurations to ensure uninterrupted device and app management.
What is changing
-
-
Intune network endpoints will expand to include Azure Front Door ranges.
-
Existing Intune endpoints remain required. Do not remove them.
-
This change is part of Microsoft’s Secure Future Initiative to improve security alignment.
-
Who is affected
-
-
Units that restrict outbound traffic using firewalls, routers, proxies, VPNs, or network security groups.
-
All Intune-managed devices (mobile device management and app protection policies).
-
Action required
-
-
By December 1, 2025, update firewall rules to allow outbound traffic on port 443 for the AzureFrontDoor.MicrosoftSecurity service tag.
-
Alternatively, add the new IP ranges from the official JSON files (search for “AzureFrontDoor.MicrosoftSecurity”).
-
Keep existing Intune endpoints in place.
-
Timeline
-
-
Now: Review firewall allowlists and plan updates.
-
December 1, 2025: Deadline for updates.
-
December 2, 2025: Intune begins using new endpoints.
-
